Trial, Error and Eﬀ ort Walton-Verona’s Faith Alford overcomes neurological condition to play in college James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Walton-Verona’s Faith Alford lost her senior year playing softball to the coronavirus pandemic. She will now play for Midway of the NAIA, where she will major in marketing and communications. PROVIDED

Her high school softball career didn’t end the way she wanted it to, but Faith Alford is grateful she had the opportunity to even take the fi eld. Three years ago, the 2020 WaltonVerona High School graduate couldn’t stay on her feet for an entire day. She didn’t have the energy to last through an entire day of school or through a game in her favorite sports. Through trial, error and eff ort, Alford overcame losing her senior year of softball to the coronavirus pandemic to being able to continue playing at the college level. Alford will play for Midway (Ky.) of the NAIA next school year, where she will major in marketing and communications at Midway. “It means a lot,” Alford said. “After getting my diagnosis, I didn’t know what my life would look like. I thought it would be impossible to play. I didn’t know if I could pitch again or play any sport. Three years later, knowing I’ll be a college player is special.” Alford has been diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), a neurological condition that aff ects blood fl ow and primarily causes symptoms when standing up from a reclining position. The diagnosis came after months of uncertainty as her allergies became uncontrollable. The syndrome aff ects at least 450,000 people in the United States, mostly women. NFL quarterback Nick Foles’ wife has the condition and they have spoken in medical conferences. See ALFORD, Page 2A

Taste of Belgium to open ﬁ rst NKY location Keely Brown Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Taste of Belgium has announced plans to open its fi rst Northern Kentucky location. The popular eatery will be housed in the space formerly occupied by Abuelo’s Mexican Restaurant at Crestview Hills Town Center. “We’ve been asked for a long time to open in Northern Kentucky and this location is perfect for a Taste of Belgium Bistro,” founder Jean-François Flechet said in a news release. “This opportunity also fi ts well into our overall plan while we’re going through similar processes and procedures reopening our existing Bistros.” Taste of Belgium plans to have the Crestview Hills location open for carryout and delivery in the next few weeks while the company fi nishes renovating the space. Patio and dine-in service will follow mid-summer.

Belgium waffles, the signature food item at Taste of Belgium, are ready for packaging at their location on 12th and Vine Street in Over-the-Rhine. The waffles are made from a large cast iron waffle maker the owner brought back from his native Belgium. LIZ DUFOUR/THE ENQUIRER

Region’s 2050 transportation plan includes new Ohio River bridge and streetcar expansion Hannah K. Sparling Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The region’s 2050 plan for transportation includes a new Brent Spence Bridge, a new Western Hills Viaduct and – perhaps a surprise to some – a continuation of Cincinnati’s streetcar across the Ohio River into Newport. The plan – from the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments – is a federally mandated blueprint of what transportation projects the region can expect over the next 30 years. The plan is required to look forward at least 20 years, but it gets updated at least every four. This is is not a deﬁ ning list of what’s to come: Just because a project is on the list doesn’t mean it will ever get funding. But these aren’t pie-in-the-sky ideas, either. The list is based on the amount of money OKI thinks will be available and projects OKI thinks would add value to the region’s transportation system. Plus, if a project is not on the list – see: the Eastern Bypass – that means it is not eligible for federal funding (though, the list is always subject to revision). “It’s not guaranteed. Actually, nothing is guaranteed,” said OKI Deputy Executive Director Robert Koehler. “Even the Brent Spence Bridge, everyone agrees, that’s a great project, and we gotta do it. But how are we going to pay for it? We keep including the Brent Spence in our plan because it’s got to get done.” Overall, the 2050 plan contains 205 projects expected to cost $8.5 billion. That will end up being a mix of federal, state and local funding. See 2050 PLAN, Page 2A

KENTON RECORDER

2050 plan Continued from Page 1A

A few highlights:

The Brent Spence Bridge is at the top of the list. Replacing the Brent Spence Bridge is the most expensive item in both Ohio and Kentucky, projected to cost about $1.2 billion in Ohio and $1.3 billion in Kentucky. Just below that is a new Western Hills Viaduct, projected to cost $332.8 million. “They’re absolutely necessary,” said OKI CEO Mark Policinski. “They’ve got to be done.”

Public transportation has major projects in the works. Hamilton County voters just passed a $130 million a year sales tax for Cincinnati Metro, and that commitment to public transit is reﬂ ected in the plan. There are projects to add bus-only lanes on Montgomery Road, Hamilton Avenue, Glenway Avenue, and Reading Road. Combined, those four projects are expected to cost $590 million, a mixture of local and state/federal funding. Bus Rapid Transit, where at least a portion of a route is in a bus-only lane, was one of the major selling points of

Cincinnati Metro’s levy. The OKI plan also calls for more alternative-fuel buses; new transit centers to serve crosstown routes, east to west across the city; and new benches and shelters throughout Metro’s territory. In Northern Kentucky, the plan calls for a new $4.5 million transit station at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport to serve future route expansions.

The streetcar expansion project was submitted by Newport Commissioner Beth Fennell, who said her main goal was just to get the project into the OKI plan so it’s eligible for federal money. The expansion was also in OKI’s last plan, Fennell said. “Right now, this is the placeholder,” she said, but the ultimate goal is to get the streetcar to at least connect to Newport’s Ovation site, which will soon be home to a new concert venue.

Cyclists and walkers get some love.

The Eastern Bypass didn’t make the list.

The vast majority of the funding is dedicated to highways, but there is some money dedicated to bike and pedestrian projects. That includes new or expanded trails, particularly along the Ohio River and the Great Miami River. In Kentucky, there’s a project to complete the CVG Loop Trail along the northern border of the airport as well as several projects to continue the Licking River Greenway, a plan to build a 14-mile trail that will connect Covington, Taylor Mill, Wilder and Newport.

Notably missing from the 2050 plan? The Eastern Bypass, a proposed outer loop around the current outer loop that would go roughly 70 miles, from Springboro to Crittenden in Grant County. The main reason the Eastern Bypass is not on the list is money, Koehler said. One study projected the bypass would cost about $5.3 billion, more than half of the $8.5 billion pot of total money available. The bypass has also failed to gather broad community support, with Warren County Commissioner Dave Young calling it a “red herring” and Derek Bauman, a board member for the transit advocacy group All Aboard Ohio, calling it a “giveaway to sprawl developers.” “It’s just bad on its face, and it doesn’t even deserve study,” Bauman told The Enquirer in 2019.

Will the streetcar go to Newport? The Cincinnati Bell Connector isn’t carrying passengers right now – running empty to help stop the spread of COVID-19 – but the OKI plan calls for a $79.7 million expansion of the streetcar across the Ohio River into Newport.

Alford Continued from Page 1A

“She had to change her diet, water intake, and start taking new medication,” said head volleyball coach Angela Hummeldorf. “Even though Faith still has some bad days due to POTS, she is able to manage it and live a normal teenage life.” During the fall of her sophomore year in 2017, Alford went to the emergency room several times and used nine EPI Pens within two months. Her parents consulted several local doctors and called hospitals in the area to try to get an answer, but came up empty. In December 2017, Alford was accepted into the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. A doctor there diagnosed the condition after testing her heart rate and blood pressure during a simple procedure called a tilt test, where she laid down for 45 minutes then stood for 10. “Every day I have to eat the right foods, drink a lot of water, take a lot of medicine,” Alford said. “I’m able to control it more now but earlier on I had a lot of issues.” Alford has to take two dozen pills per day and has made dramatic changes to her diet. She has to have equipment with her such as handheld fans and ice packs. She uses biofeedback techniques and has learned helpful breathing exer-

cises. Fortunately, she has been told the condition is likely to go away in a few years as she grows out of it, but her lifestyle is a lot better than it was. “Softball, almost every game my dad would have to carry me out of the ballpark because I would pass out,” she said. “Sophomore year, I had to stop pitching and just play shortstop because I was tired all the time. It was hard to do day-to-day things. I would have to take naps, get out of school early.” Hummeldorf said, “Throughout the years, Faith had to wear an ice vest and take several breaks. She struggled in warmer gyms and had a few episodes where she passed out due to POTS during matches. Faith is a ﬁ ghter and now that she has the right diagnosis she is doing much better.”

A plan by the regional transportation agency calls for a $79.7 million expansion of the streetcar across the Ohio River into Newport. The project is “very conceptual at this point,” a planning official says. ENQUIRER FILE

Koehler, OKI’s deputy executive director, said that project is “very conceptual at this point,” but an expanded streetcar could be another option for Northern Kentucky commuters and, if it got enough riders, it could help relieve congestion. “It doesn’t mean that OKI has pledged any funding to it,” Koehler said. “It just means it’s something (a group in Newport is) interested in pursuing and it has transportation and public beneﬁ ts.”

Alford was a key contributor for the Bearcats’ volleyball team that won 23 matches last fall. “Faith works hard at practice and gives everything she has at every volleyball match,” Hummeldorf said. “She is a huge asset to the Walton-Verona volleyball team. This past year she motivated the other players to work hard and want to do better.” Alford was named to the Tom Leach All-Resilient Team, a list of seniors who overcame physical problems and challenges to compete. The honors are compiled annually by Leach, who is the radio voice of the Kentucky Wildcats. This year’s team will be honored at the Kentucky High School Athletic Directors Association annual banquet. Holy Cross

volleyball player Torie Houston was also honored by Leach. In softball, Alford hit .349 last year and was the number one pitcher, going 7-8 with a 2.73 ERA. Her top memory is leading WV to an upset of top Eighth Region contender Collins in the regional tournament. Alford struck out the ﬁ rst two batters in the seventh in a 10-9 win. The softball season was canceled by the coronavirus, denying the Bearcats a chance for more postseason glory. “It’s awful,” she said. “I feel like we would have had a good year. I wanted to take the ﬁ eld one last time with all those girls and all the fellow seniors I played with for seven years. It’s really sad to think I’ll never put on the Bearcat jersey again.”

Protests over racial injustice expand to suburbs Segann March Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Chris Brown didn't want to see her small town on the sidelines during a historical wave of protests calling for changes to systemic racism and police brutality. So the Northern Kentucky native decided to organize her own protest "Hands up, Don't Shoot" in Erlanger and Elsmere on June 7, drawing more than 1,200 people. "Whether we are having (a protest) here or in Washington, D.C., it is (the same) system that is enabling the behaviors of the police to continue," Brown said. "People are fed up. If all the small towns became engaged, that's an enormous fraction of people that can inﬂ ict change in our government." As days of protests continue in the streets of Cincinnati, more suburban and rural communities surrounding Hamilton County and Northern Kentucky are marching in solidarity and joining the nationwide movement. The 39-year-old activist says more people are becoming aware of police incidents because of social media and are ready to speak out. She believes townships and small cities will continue to protest through November. "This is a turning point for this country," Brown told the Enquirer Monday. "I don't see us going back into our cubbyholes ever again. If you're seeing (police brutality) happen on TV in large cities, it's deﬁ nitely happening in smaller areas because there is no light shined on it. We gotta shine the light in America."

Protestors walk in Erlanger at the "Hands Up! Don’t Shoot!" march and rally June 7. PHIL DIDION / THE ENQUIRER

In Cincinnati, protesters have gathered and marched throughout the city: in Over-the-Rhine, Downtown, and near the University of Cincinnati. Peaceful protesters have also gathered or are planning to gather in West Chester Township, Fort Mitchell, Oxford, Mason, Mount Lookout, and Newport. On June 7, more than 200 people marched in Fort Mitchell, a suburb in Northern Kentucky, against racial injustice. Barb Wilson, the spokesperson for

West Chester Township, said suburban areas around Cincinnati make up a large population of diverse people. The 64,000 person township had rallies and protests in the past for diﬀ erent reasons, but are infrequent, she said. "It seems that it would be appropriate and normal that the discussions that are occurring would occur anywhere," Wilson said. "It was a very diverse group (of protesters) and it was exciting to hear all points of view. It was great that people felt comfortable coming out and discussing their issues and concerns.

Hopefully, it was heard." The Columbus Dispatch reported that hundreds of Ohio University students and residents marched through Athens over the course of several days. "People are also realizing that they aren't happy with our president and the administration," Brown said. "He is spewing hate and violence right from the white house and a lot of people are outraged about George Floyd and Breonna Taylor." Columbus Dispatch reporter Ceili Doyle contributed to this article.

mous vehicles, fewer crashes and cleaner air. Some of the changes will be slow, according to the plan’s predictions, but by 2050, most vehicles on the road will be electric or some technology other than the internal combustion engine widely used today. Up to 70% of vehicles will be fully autonomous, and as such, crash rates will be down about 75% compared to 2020. Ridesharing will become even more

common, and private car ownership will become obsolete. Transportation and technology move quickly and change constantly, Policinski said, so in all likelihood, that vision for 2050 will be completely different by the time we actually get there. But, he said, “we need to put out there an idea of what the future could look like. I think that’s critical. This is not just how to shorten your commute. This is going to change your life. This is going to change society.”

VIEWPOINTS ‘Thank you’ to Cohorn Concrete Your Turn

Kathy Andress Guest Columnist Villa Hills

NORTHERN KENTUCKY – My husband and I have needed a new driveway for several years. We fi nally were ready to do our research into what this all entails. I drove around the subdivision of which many of our neighbors have already upgraded their drives. I picked out three and took pictures and talked to the homeowners to ask questions about who was the contractor, what they thought of the job and if they were satisfi ed overall. I took all this information and called three diff erent recommended contractors, all local, for bids. All the bids were within $4,000 dollars of each other. I was very exact about my request as far as the size, sidewalks etc. We decided on Cohorn Concrete, they were neither the least expensive or the most. The owner, Chris Cohorn, was very professional. His contract was complete with every detail including materials, labor, cost and also provided was all the necessary insurance information, duration of the job, scheduled hours for the job and fi nally instructions for the care of the driveway after completion of the work. On the fi rst day and every day after that they arrived on time. There was no need for late excuses like I’ve had from other contractors in the past. One thing I felt good about was the fact that with our pandemic there were still some people who were able to work. Every day there were 11 total crew members. At some point I met all the guys, they were very polite but most of all they

were hard workers, when something needed to be done they were on it! I have to admit, watching the demoli-

tion every day was something to see. Every new phase of the job was exciting to watch. I got a real education on the proc-

ess of pouring a new driveway and all of the people it takes for a fi nished product. As the work went on, I watched from the windows and took several pictures that I have included. Each night the crew would put away all tools, sweep and clean up all debris before leaving for the day. Now that the work is done, it is beautiful, amazing fi nish, and everything I asked for was completed. I would like to thank the Cohorn Concrete crew for their knowledge, professionalism, and kindness throughout our experience with your company. I would recommend Cohorn Conrete to anybody needing quality concrete work. In ending, I would just like to say thank you again from a very satisfi ed customer.

Fort Mitchell man sentenced to 18 months for 2015 bank fraud Ian McKenzie Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Fort Mitchell man has been sentenced to 18 months in federal prison for bank fraud prosecutors said he committed in 2015. Joseph Shockey, 53, pleaded guilty in January. He admitted in his guilty plea that in 2014 he obtained $500,000 of credit from Stock Yards Bank and Trust Co. Shockey was sued in Utah that year, and

a judgment of $579,063 was entered against him. He agreed to pay $49,496.07 in restitution. Shockey must serve 85% of his sentence imposed and will be on probation for ﬁ ve years, according to the U.S. Department of Justice's news release. Stock Yards was not told about the judgment, but the credit line was extended. The investigation was conducted by the FBI.

United Way seeks to give 1,000 NKY households internet for students Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

United Way of Greater Cincinnati and Cincinnati Bell will partner to give internet access to 1,000 homes where Northern Kentucky students in grades K-12 live for the upcoming school year. Approximately 6,000, or 10 percent of the 60,000 K-12 students in Northern Kentucky lack reliable internet service, according to a United Way release. A similar project is taking place with Cincinnati Public Schools, funded by Greater Cincinnati Foundation. The new program will start with 880 qualifying households in districts demonstrating the greatest need, according to the release. Those school districts are Boone County Schools, Kenton County Schools, Campbell Coun-

ty Schools, Covington Independent Public Schools, Erlanger-Elsmere Independent Schools, Newport Independent Schools, Dayton Independent Schools, Ludlow Independent Schools, and Bellevue Independent Schools. The pilot programs to provide low-cost internet service, which start in June, will help partners identify ways to expand the Digital Equity Initiative to more public school students, according to the release. The shutting down of in-person learning by schools in March because of coronavirus made the digital divide that exists between some students clear, according to the release. Many students could not participate in online remote learning, according to the release. “COVID-19 exposed the importance of access to technology, especially

when it comes to virtual learning,” said Moira Weir, President and CEO of the United Way of Greater Cincinnati. “The NKY Digital Equity Initiative for Students program will ensure no student is left behind." United Way is seeking to raise money to provide internet access to more than 1,000 households, according to the release. Text “NKYWIFI” to 71777 to donate. A $78 donation will connect a household for six months of service at $12.99 a month, according to the release. Horizon Community Funds is helping to support the ﬁ rst 1,000 household donations, according to the release. "United Way is the perfect partner for this work, given their strong daily engagement with our community's school districts," said Horizon's president Nancy Grayson.

Dayton Independent Schools Superintendent Jay Brewer said the computer and internet are the pencil and paper of the 21st Century. “This is a great example of the collaborative spirit and power in Northern Kentucky to come together to level the playing ﬁ eld for students,” Brewer said. This eliminates another barrier to learning thanks to the United Way, Horizon Community Funds, and Cincinnati Bell, said Michael Borchers, superintendent of Ludlow Independent Schools. “Ludlow Independent Schools is proud to partner in a project that will help close to the digital divide in our community,” Borchers said. “We are a one-to-one district for technology and this allows our students the opportunity to connect to the educational resources available to them

both at school and in their house. As we prepare for a new school year with many uncertainties, we

know for sure that our families will be able to digitally connect with us.”

Dish up some spaghetti with drop meatballs and tomato sauce Spaghetti with drop meatballs and tomato sauce My friend and chef, west side reader Giovanna Trimpe (author of “Holy Chow” and “Gluten Free Holy Chow” cookbooks) would scold me for using oregano. “Basil only in pasta sauce!” Giovanna says. 1 pound spaghetti (save 1 cup water after pasta cooks for thinning sauce) Meatballs and sauce

Add tomatoes. Turn heat up a bit, cover pan, and let sauce cook until meatballs are done, about 10 minutes. Remove lid and let sauce continue to cook, stirring gently if necessary.

Couple handfuls parsley, chopped, divided

Now cook the pasta while sauce continues to cook.

Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

I’ve been hungry for homemade spaghetti and meatballs. Maybe it’s because we’ve been eating a lot of lean protein and less carbs. A pound of ground beef already thawed in the refrigerator nudged me on. And the herbs I like in spaghetti sauce – Drop meatballs cooking (loosely formed parsley, basil and oregano, needed prun- shapes). RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER ing so that sealed the deal.

Use small scoop or two spoons to loosely form meatballs and carefully drop in hot oil to brown lightly on one side. Meatballs won’t be done yet.

2 bay leaves, optional, or a squeeze of anchovy paste (also optional) 2 cans crushed, diced or whole tomatoes, crushed, 28 oz. each

Drain pasta and put back in pot. Spoon about half the sauce, no meatballs, into pasta. Toss and add some reserved pasta water if you like. Place pasta in bowls, top with meatballs and as much sauce as you like (extra sauce can be frozen you don’t use it all), and sprinkle with cheese and parsley. Tips:

To my palate, crushed tomatoes are more saucy/ thick with stronger “tomatoey” flavor than diced or whole.

SPORTS NAIA approves plans for fall sports season Thomas More teams can start practice Aug. 15 James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) announced an update June 4 for the 2020 fall sports season as it works toward resuming competition after a halt in March due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Thomas More University will enter its second season in the NAIA as a member of the Mid-South Conference beginning with fall 2020. The NAIA's Council of President Executive Committee approved three national oﬃ ce recommendations that included a return-to-play threshold, start dates and maximum contests allowed for fall sports. The return-to-play threshold goal is for about half the participating institutions in each sport to receive clearance

from local authorities to return to competition before the season can begin. For example, NAIA football has 95 participating institutions. When half (47) of these programs gain clearance from authorities to play, the NAIA football season will be authorized to begin. According to the NAIA, "The rationale for this decision is that a signifi cant number of institutions need to participate to off er student-athletes a signifi cant competitive and championshipcaliber experience. Additionally, the fewer the number of participating programs, the higher the likelihood of scheduling challenges leading to increased travel costs and missed class time." Based on input from NAIA presidents, ADs, commissioners, athletics trainers, and health care professionals, the COP Executive Committee approved the recommendation of practice and competition start dates for each sport. See THOMAS MORE, Page 2B

Doc Morris scholarships honor deceased umpire James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Doc Morris has been gone from the Northern Kentucky baseball community for 30 years now. His legacy and memory live on long after the beloved local umpire died at age 50 in 1990. Morris’ name has been a ﬁ xture in the area since then, with an annual high school tournament in his name, and a scholarship fund. The coronavirus pandemic wiped away this year’s tournament along with the rest of the KHSAA baseball season, but not the scholarship money. The Northern Kentucky baseball coaches association awarded three $1,000 scholarships June 11 during a private dinner with the recipients and their families. Normally, the awards are given out at the annual East/West all-star games, which were scheduled for last week before the pandemic also wiped them oﬀ the schedule. “I love him to death,” said longtime Dixie Heights head coach Chris Maxwell. “To die at such a young age was unfair to not just his family, but everyone in Northern Kentucky. He did more for youth sports than I can remember. It’s a great thing to honor him and to keep this See SCHOLARSHIPS, Page 2B

Covington Catholic High School has added Rich Hoyt to its basketball staff as an assistant coach. He will lead the freshman program. Hoyt has 10 years of high school basketball coaching experience in the Cincinnati area as an assistant coach at Roger Bacon (2001-06) and head basketball coach at The Summit Country Day School (200610). In 2009, while head coach at Summit Country Day, Hoyt was honored as The Cincinnati Enquirer and Greater Cincinnati Basketball Hoyt Hall of Fame Division 4 Coach of the Year in 2009 when he led Summit to its fi rst district championship in 21 years. During the past 10 years, Hoyt has been a television basketball color analyst for the Xavier women’s basketball program and Big East Digital Network. For the past three years, Hoyt has also served as color analyst for Northern Kentucky University women’s and men’s basketball on ESPN3 and Fox Sports Ohio. Hoyt served as principal at Saint Agnes School in Fort Wright, a Covington Catholic feeder school, from 201319. He is also a regular contributor to the Messenger on issues in sports and spirituality as well as an instructor for the Play Like a Champion Program. Hoyt earned a bachelor’s degree in sports management at Indiana University and a master’s of education in sports administration from Xavier University. He is the author of the book “Finishing the Job” (www.FinishingTheJob.com) and was a contributor to Jeff Janssen’s book “How to Develop Relentless Competitors.” “Rich is a great addition to our basketball family,” CovCath head basketball coach Scott Ruthsatz said. “He brings loads of coaching experience, knowledge and credibility, which will greatly benefi t our entire program.” Covington Catholic Athletic Director Tony Bacigalupo said: “We are very excited to have Rich join our basketball staff . He is a great leader and man of tremendous integrity.” CovCath was 29-5 last season and is three-time reigning Ninth Region champions. The Colonels did not get to play in the Sweet 16 because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Cincinnati.com Sports Awards adds Belichick, Curry Melanie Laughman Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Six-time Super Bowl champion and New England Patriots head coach, Bill Belichick, and three-time NBA champion and point guard for the Golden State Warriors, Stephen Curry, join the roster of guests featured during the Cincinnati.com Sports Awards show Thursday, June 18. Belichick will present the coach of the year and team of the year awards for the 2019-2020 high school sports season. Curry will announce the Belichick top players in girls and boys basketball. Belichick is considered by many as the greatest professional football coach of all time. He has 11 more playoﬀ wins than any other NFL coach and is third, behind only George Halas and Don Shula, in regular-season wins. He’s led the New England Patriots for 20 years and

in that time has won six of the team’s nine Super Bowl appearances. Curry, 32, is known as one of the best shooters in NBA history and has been credited with revolutionizing the game as teams and athletes have adopted and adapted to his success behind the three-point line. Curry grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina, and played college basketball for Davidson, where he was a star and Curry broke records starting in his freshman year. Belichick and Curry round out an award-winning list of celebrity guests who have been leaders in their sport, including Super Bowl Champion and MVP Patrick Mahomes, quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, who was announced earlier this month. Other professional athletes who will be featured during the awards show include Venus Williams, Michael Phelps, Wayne Gretzky, Gabby Douglas, Bode Miller, Jackie

Joyner-Kersee, Gary Woodland, Misty May-Treanor, Jordan Burroughs, Norm Duke, Rose Lavelle, Jessica Mendoza and Keli Smith Puzo. Sports broadcasters Jesse Palmer, Sage Steele, Dr. Jerry Punch and Courtney Cronin will host the awards show. The show will premiere at 6 p.m. local time on June 18 and is free to watch using any desktop or smart device on the event website, sportsawards. cincinnati.com. Not all state-sanctioned sports will be included in the Player of the Year awards due to spring sports cancellations required by the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, there will be a segment of recognition for seniors who missed their ﬁ nal sports seasons as part of a national tribute video that will be included in the broadcast. The public can also show support for seniors who missed their ﬁ nal games and celebrations by joining in the national movement with support messages on Instagram and Twitter using the hashtag #DontStop-

thing going. We’ve gone from one $500 scholarship to three $1,000 ones.” While Morris was working high school games, he would always take time to instruct players when they were breaking rules, such as balks in their pitching motion. Morris, who worked for the state highway department, would help maintain the fi elds in the community. “The thing I remember about Doc is he had a heart of gold,” said Michael Foulks, a principal and educator for nearly 40 years who now works at Newport High School. “He worked for the state highway department and there wasn’t a football fi eld in Northern Kentucky that Doc didn’t throw fertilizer and grass seed on. Every spring he stopped at just about every fi eld and threw out seed for them.” The scholarships go annually to three local high school graduates who are currently in college. This year’s winners are Newport graduate Michael Lewis, Silver Grove graduate Elian Turcios and Ludlow graduate Thomas “T.C.” Eads. Lewis, a fi ve-year standout on the diamond for Newport, graduated in 2014, then graduated from Pikeville University. He is now at the University of Pitts-

With delayed start dates, the committee approved a reduction in the maximum number of contests as follows: cross country, seven meets (down from

See details on the event website on the night of the show for additional information. The Cincinnati Enquirer will also participate in a national eff ort to raise funds locally for those impacted most by the COVID-19 pandemic. Donate on sportsawards.cincinnati.com to the “Team Cincinnati COVID Relief.” This national eff ort will support the United Way, The American Red Cross and Feeding America. The community that raises the most funds by June 20 will receive a matching donation from the USA TODAY Network, up to $10,000, for those local charities.

others, said his coaches. “Their mom, their dad, all the kids were always there and I looked around and not a lot of the other parents were there,” said former Newport coach Grady Brown. “Elian is smart, but he didn’t want everybody to know that. I knew Elian was going to make something of himself.” Eads, a baseball standout at Ludlow, played for Berea College and has transferred to NKU for academics. He received ﬁ ve nominations after his father died in May. “He has had a tough life and upbringing,” said one of the nominees on a nomination form. "I have never had a player work harder with his academics or athletics. There were times when we had no idea if he had even eaten on some days.” “The scholarship money helps a lot with everything going on,” Eads said. “I’m ecstatic. It’s a privilege and an honor to be voted for this.” The Doc Morris Scholarship Tournament has been a ﬁ xture in Northern Kentucky since soon after his passing. For many years, it was a 16-team singleelimination tournament before recently changing to an invitational with every team guaranteed three games. Maxwell said the showcase would expand next year to include brackets for small schools, hoping to include at least 12 teams from Northern Kentucky and elsewhere.

The NAIA will begin to evaluate the possible impact of COVID-19 on the winter season. Thomas More University and the Mid-South Conference will move forward with fall sports schedules that will be released when decisions become ﬁ nalized.

Redwood CEO John Francis to retire

Grant Birindelli, of Fort Mitchell, KY, successfully completed four years of challenging academic, physical, and professional military training, graduating from the U.S. Naval Academy, May 22, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace Engineering and a commission as a US Navy Ensign. PROVIDED

Redwood has a policy called “CEO Succession Plan” which calls for the person in my position to give 12 months’ notice if leaving the agency. I gave that notice back in January to the Board and also told our Leadership Team. At the time I gave notice, that was before our current pandemic was even hitting the news around the world. I had planned to tell Redwood staﬀ soon after I told the Board, but then the pandemic hit, and it just didn’t seem the right time to share my news. Now seems a better time. On Dec. 31, 2020, I’ll be retiring. At

that time, I’ll be approaching my 6-year mark at Redwood, having come here in April 2015. My wife and I are both in good health. We want to enjoy time with our immediate family (especially our three grand kids), siblings and their families as well as time in recreation (paddling my canoe, photography, fi shing and day hiking). I also want to volunteer on a regular basis with a few different places. I may do a little consulting on the side. Right now, our plans are to move next winter or spring to Northwest Georgia where we’ll be extremely close to our grandkids and within a couple hours of some of my wife’s family near Nashville, TN. I’ve said since being at Redwood, “This is the most special place I’ve ever worked.” I still feel that way! Where else could you fi nd such endearing clients, compassionate staff , talented Board members and supportive community? And, on top of that, such a sense of “family.” The Board will begin a national search sometime this summer for my successor. The plan is to have the new CEO on board for a month or two before my last day for on-boarding purposes. I told the Board back in January that we have a very strong Leadership Team and a very dedicated staff . We have strong systems in place. Such a strong agency can, should and will survive a succession at the CEO level. Redwood will be in good hands. Thanks to each of you for making Redwood a great place to be a client and a great place to be an employee. Andy Furman, Redwood

$50K personal protective equipment grant lands at Life Learning Center Horizon Community Funds will immediately deploy $50,000 to purchase masks, face shields, gloves, gowns, and hand sanitizers that will be distributed to a large group of nonprofi t organizations serving Northern Kentucky. Life Learning Center will spearhead the purchase and distribution process of the personal protective equipment (PPE). “Our nonprofi ts continue to stretch their resources, which are already tight, to meet new challenges presented by the Coronavirus’ spread,” said Horizon Community Funds President Nancy Grayson. “We hope to alleviate some of that strain through providing PPE equipment, and we thank Life Learning Center for taking the lead on getting this equipment in the hands of our nonprofi t partners. If you have donated to our Coronavirus Relief Fund, please know that this is your gift at work in Northern Kentucky.” The money comes directly from the Horizon NKY Coronavirus Relief Fund, which continues to raise money for and

They have a strong dedication to deploying dollars where it makes the most sense, and has the most impact.” No equipment remains for nonprofi ts that have not already reached out to Horizon Community Funds, but leadership at the organization anticipates future opportunities through direct funding or leveraging partnerships across the region. Nonprofi ts may reach out to Tess Brown at tbrown@horizonfunds.org or 859-620-8221 to be added to the list for future consideration of PPE distribution. Just over $550,000 has been distributed through the Horizon NKY Coronavirus Relief Fund. The advisory committee continues to review requests for funding. Individuals and businesses are encouraged to donate to the Relief Fund by: • Texting “NKYRELIEF” to 44-321 • Visiting www.horizonfunds.org

Planning ahead to preserve the harvest People have been spending more time at home with the recent pandemic guidelines. Many have chosen to plant a garden. Gardens can be educational, provide an outlet for creativity and purpose, and supply our loved ones with tasty produce. Now is the time to be thinking about what you will do with what you will be harvesting. Maybe you plan to share the freshly harvested items with others. Maybe you plan to can, freeze or dry the products for your own use later in the year. Thinking ahead about what equip-

ment you need to safely prepare and store your foods is important. You may need extra freezer space or canning or dehydrating supplies. It is important to not wait until the last minute to make plans for what you will do with your summer bounty. The Boone and Kenton County Cooperative Extension Services will be oﬀ ering online educational sessions on canning, freezing and drying produce. Food preservation is a science. When done improperly the results can lead to less than satisfactory food or even foods that can make people sick. Proper techniques, tips and tricks will be shared during each of the sessions being offered. Individuals can register for any or all of the hour-long sessions. Call the Boone County Cooperative Extension Service at 859-586-6101 or visit the website <boone.ca.uky.edu> to register. Only those registered will receive the links to join the on-line sessions. Sessions and the topics are: ❚ Tuesday, July 7, 9 a.m., Water Bath Canning Basics ❚ Tuesday, July 14, 9 a.m., Pressure Canning Basics ❚ Tuesday, July 21, 9 a.m., Dehydrating Basics ❚ Tuesday, July 28, 9 a.m., Freezing Basics Water bath canning is used for high acid foods like jams, jellies, fruits, pickles and tomatoes. Pressure canning is required for low acid foods including vegetables, meats, seafood, and combination foods. In addition to the online educational programs, the extension oﬃ ce professionals are available to provide guidance for food preservation via the telephone or through e-mail. We also have horticulture professionals who can provide advice on garden planning and maintenance. Educational programs of the Cooperative Extension Service serve all people regardless of economic or social status and will not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnic origin, national origin, creed, religion, political belief, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expressions, pregnancy, marital status, genetic information, age, veteran status, or physical or mental disability.

SCHOOL NEWS Senior distance and cross country runner Natalie Lienhart reflects upon the adversity she’s faced through Q&A HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. – McAuley graduate Natalie Lienhart is looking forward to her new normal after graduating college with a degree in Computer Information Technology. Throughout her time as a cross country and track & fi eld athlete at Northern Kentucky University, she has made several transitions in both her athletic and academic life. The Cincinnati native discusses how she overcame multiple injuries, switched majors and the program’s evolution since she started competing four years ago as a Norse. Q: What drew you to NKU, other than it being close to home? A: When I started looking at schools, I wanted two things: to be able to run and it also have my program. Originally, I went in with Computer Forensics in mind, but that is now my minor. It also helped that I really liked the team, the coaches and the atmosphere. Q: How did you get into Track/Cross Country? A: In sixth grade, my twin brother decided to try track. I had to go to all of his practices and meets anyway, so I decided to join in. I went to the distance side of track right away, which is funny because I skipped right over sprints. In 7th grade, we then both decided to run cross country. Q: What did your recruiting process look like? A: My high school coach actually ran against Steve Kruse in college, so he helped me reach out to him. My mom and I talked back and forth between him and Paul Longano. Q: Talk about the team atmosphere. A: It’s defi nitely changed over the years; since my freshman year it has grown from a younger team to an older team. This year has become a whole new team. And I think we’ve bonded a lot more, especially between the cross country and track & fi eld athletes. Q: How do you mentally prepare for a meet, since it’s an individual competition with a team outcome? A: We have a routine we go through every time we have a meet. Depending on the course, we talk through it and in-

Natalie Lienhart. PROVIDED

dividually tell the team our goals. For cross country, it was a big deal for us to have the cross country meet at NKU this year because we were able to actually walk through the course. For track & fi eld this past indoor season, I was just supposed to hold on to the top pack for dear life and I was able to do that. Because of that I was actually able to set a PR (personal record). Q: What is your favorite part about competing? A: I like the team aspect of it and getting to watch other people compete. I think being able to support my teammates is one of the best parts of this sport. We had a lot of people do really well this year and it was super exciting to see. If one person breaks a school record everyone else gets super motivated by it, especially last year in outdoor conference. I wasn’t able to compete but I was able to cheer on. Q: What would you like tell freshmen that will be competing at NKU? A: Value your time as an athlete and student and trust the process. You may have an off -race, meet or even season, but don’t let that discourage you. Things do come with time, you just have to wait. We have amazing coaches at NKU that have gotten me where I am, so you have to trust them and that they know what they’re doing. Q: What challenges have you faced as an athlete and how have you overcome them? A: I’ve had a few diff erent injuries and I just needed to look at the bigger picture. The last one I had was a concussion for two and a half months one season. I started competing again and then they realized I hadn’t fully recovered. The hardest part for people is trying not to rush to fast into things; a little pain could lead to bigger pain.

Q: What is your major and what do you plan on doing after graduation? A: My major is computer information technology. After graduation I’m trying to fi gure out a few diff erent options because I’d like to teach people about technology and tell people how they can improve at it. I also might be starting a master’s program soon, just to get a little more education on this specifi c fi eld. Before the University shut down due to the virus, I was working at the tech bar at NKU. It’s defi nitely been a slow process trying to fi nd a full-time job, but I’m just trying to be patient with companies. I mentioned my brother before; he goes to University of Cincinnati and just graduated with an Athletic Training major. We haven’t offi cially done anything to celebrate yet. There are six people in my family graduating this year, so eventually we’ll get pictures together and celebrate at a later time. Q: How are you involved at NKU? A: I’m a SAAC representative for our team and was one of the track & fi eld captains. It gives you a whole diff erent perspective; mostly it has given me a lot of leadership experience. Basically, I’m just making sure everyone is doing well; talking with the my teammates who are injured and making sure they’re not rushing back into [competing]. Q: What do you do when you’re not competing, practicing or studying? A: I really like to do 3D puzzles, rubiks cubes and spend a lot of time with my family. I just stayed home for spring break and so once this all started, I was

able to quickly get moved back home after living on campus. We really just like to hang out, and we see our grandparents once a week. Q: Who have been some of your biggest inﬂ uences? A: My parents and, of course, my brother. They helped me stay motivated and be where I want to be. I also had really great coaches. We brought PJ Ball on and she’s made a huge impact on our team. She really tries to connect with all of us and personalize us as individuals. Q: Favorite memory at NKU? Athlete and overall? A: Mostly just the meets and the cross country races. I really like to see everyone succeed and all of their hard work pay oﬀ . NKU track is just one of my favorite things, I feel like we’ve built such a community here.
